Minor issuesRated 4 out of 5 stars

Nice AddOn. I was actually only looking for a way to associate keyboard shortcuts with commonly used folders, so I disabled all the default keys and added new actions as required. Note that after a few actions itis necessary to scroll down, this should happenautomatically when adding a new action.

I also second the suggestions of a previous commenter that save should be called move as the operation in TB is also called move.

The option to send the rules file by email could be extended to include the keys as well. I wanted to test this but TB crashed, possibly there is a problem with sending 0 rules.

If the status bar is initially hidden (pixels are precious on a netbook) if will be unhidden by nostalgy when it offers autocompletion, and remains visible. The tick in the main menu is not updated, however.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.2.17).

some suggestionsRated 4 out of 5 stars

1. Tab completion works only with the starting sub-string of a path, it doesn't work with sub-folders even if there is only one matching sub-folder. What's worse, after pressing tab the suggestions disappear and you have to escape and activate the selection mode again.

2. I suggest renaming 'save' to 'move' (more intuitive)

3. It would be nice to be able to set the option "restrict to the current server" only for "copy" and "save/move" command, not for "go", as perhaps most people rarely move messages across different accounts.

4. Shortcut tips in the status bar should comply with custom shortcuts; option to remove these tips.

Using on Japanes ThunderbirdRated 4 out of 5 stars

I'm using this on ver.2.0.0.21 with Japanese interface, but once in a while during while using the Thunderbird, sometimes the Nostalgy short-cuts will not work, but sometimes they will.It looks like when you are in Japanese input mode, nostalgy won't work. When you change the input to "direct input" (I'm using Microsoft IME), then the nostalgy starts working again.

I'm not sure if this is a general phenomenon, but just a note for someone who will be using this in Japanese...

Extremely helpfulRated 4 out of 5 stars

Since we use keyboards to type mail, no wonder this add-on saves so much time!

Suggestions for improvement, which I'll also post to a forum once I find one:• allow mapping to menu commands—some important ones don't have shortcuts, and it'd be nice to be able to type just 'R' to reply• keyboard shortcuts should be disabled when an HTML text box in a message has focus. Message like that are rare but can be very useful when they exist• the preferences dialogues could use a bit more explanation; I had to go to the web page to find out what it all meant, and I had to play with it a bit to figure out how to assign keys to the shortcuts I created

Thanks for this!!

Great if you subscribe to the "Inbox Zero" school of thinkingRated 4 out of 5 stars

I've had this extension installed for a while (on principle, being a devoted 'mutt' and formerly 'pine' user), but only really started using it after reading some of the "Inbox Zero"-type articles, such as those Lifehacker and similar sites like to run all the time (i.e., keep your inbox empty and use a small set of action-oriented folders and tagging instead of an overly-complex hierarchy).

Nostalgy works very, very well for this, as most of your email will go to "Archive" anyway (I name mine "@Something"s so they sorts near the top of the IMAP folder list) and a couple more keystrokes will send a message to any of your other folders (such as "@Action", "@WaitingFor", and so on). I also have a hierarchy of archived mail by-year (zz_archives/2007/..., zz_archives/2006/...), and Nostalgy can speedily save messages there, too, just by typing a few digits of the year, then a couple of down-arrows from there.

One thing I wish Nostalgy did better/differently is tagging. I'd like to see the "T" key bound to tag/untag messages, with the status bar changing to a (colorized?) display of your custom tags, where either typing the name or the number (0-9) assigned to the tag will assign it. I think I'll suggest this on the mailing list...

Thanks for a great extension, Alain! It's top-notch.

Keyboard user's delightRated 5 out of 5 stars

For touch typists manually draging and dropping incoming and outgoing emails for archive purposes into individual client subfolders on the folder pane accessible only by scrolling gets real old, real fast. This awesome addon's name completion allows me to keep my hands on the keyboard and type 's' and the first few letters of the nested subfolder name to do the same thing.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Now this IS really useful, just installed it and my several Inbox and Sent folders look a lot more manageable. If you're an email magpie and keep everything like me, but in a folder structure, this is indispensable. Very good addition to Quickfolders!

I enjoy using nostalgy.Rated 5 out of 5 stars

However when a message is selected that triggers a rule (so a target folder is suggested)and after this I select another message with no rule the suggestion still keepsactive.This is a little bit dangerous because it could lead to moving a message to the wrong folder.
